This, of course is not certain. The mtthttaiaam displayed was of the gen. nine kind, no the speech of the day by Leader llaycock was a rousing We have always admired the con. duetot "airs of this province under Sir Oliver Mowat and his successnr, ex- cept here and there a flaw, which turned out lobe bearable when con- vened with the prospect of opposition rule, but weal-e tree to say that our admiration for Literal rule was heightened as we listened to Mr. Hay. eoek'e able speech on Tuesday. However we have no desire to minimize the meeting. It was ccr hinly a large one, they have brought ditit a strong candidate and Mr. Morgan Vii” M in him atoeman worthy ot his Meet not to speak of the patron Samson, Mr. MeNiehol. That he wlll have a new expcr knee also at the close of the campaign is freely predicted, as the antagonism of the two old parties, will, it is said, seduce many from the Patron madam. as in the last, election, and allow Mr. McNichol to experience an adverse vow. David leNlchol. M.P.P., re nominated. A feature of the Convention was the lime turn out from Dundalk the home of the Liberal candidate. Some tricked grits are inclined to say that a very special effort was made to have this contingent strong. Eighteen names on the hotel register made a good showing. Ayton, Neustadt and Elmwood were very slimly represented ii at all. North Bentinck and North Glenda wore scarcely in evidence and A few others whose presence would have given comfort were conspicuous by their absence. Once more however they have buckled on their armour. They cling with a taith to Dr. Jamieson that is quite touching, in view of his past want dim, and this constancy must be tiritiy gratifying to that gentleman. It is 12 years since the party won a victory. It is now eight years past elm they made an effort to tight for the local. The two chief actors of the M struggle J. H. Hunter and John Blythe have passed to the greater number. No effort was made booppose leKechnie, and four years ago they allowed their fortunes to dritt with the Patron party, sharing of course in the victory though namely rejoicing over It.

PATRON CONVENTION. Dr. Jmleson the Choice. Mr. David licNiehol, the Patronl Standard bearer is one of Bentinck’s pioneers and served his township mun icipally hw many years, occupying the reeveship a lvng time. He also is of Reiorm stock and was frequently mentioned ass possible candidate in bygone years.. He threw in his lot warmly with the Patron movement and four years ago became their ean. didate under circumstances which rendered his victory is toregone con clusion. His course this tune is not so clear, and should he succeed in again being chusen South Grey's representa- i tive, it will tend to show that the trons are alive even though their Edges don't meet, or else that Mr. Ma. Niehol IS a stronger man than was the candidate in the last election. Mr. McNicbol is very popular in his own township and has acquired a Parlia- mentary experienae that will be useful l to him in the present campaign. Two new candidates this week, and we wish to make a brief bow to both. Dr. J amieson, the Conservative can- didate is well and favorably known in South Grey. lie has had an extensive practice asa physician and has had some experience in municipal life. Originally ol Reform stock he cast in his lot with the Conicrvativrs and has twice been their candidate but both times Was defeated. That this defeat was not due to his personality his friends believe, and consequently they have again placed him in the trout ot the. party in a new sphere. He is easily their strongest man and his pop- alarity and platform ability would make him irresistible, were he sup- porting -say--the Hard y government. Ministers as well as men are, human. What is plain is that after a quarter of a century of Liberal rule, the pro- vince is highly prosperous, not in debt, as Mr. llaycock plainly Showed. and the public works of the ministry are a luonumcnt to their aniliny and im tegrity. Ontario cannot athwd to change min- isters at the present: time, with the men now in view to take their place. THE CANDIDATES. They have eommitted mistakes? What government. hasn't. They have been mistakes of judgement, acquiesced in by their opponents, corrccted when d iseovered. The Hardy Government is on trial. lfjudgea on its record, it deserves to win. Irs, virility and usefulness Were never somuch in evidence as they are this session. Jamieson, MeNiehcl, Morgan will be the order of the names on the ballot papers. What the order will be at the close of the race is to be seen. The three conventions have all been enthusiastic, all have spoken: the Word 'go" has been given, the race is on and may me best man win. The three candidates occupy and have occupied respectable places in the community, in character they are above reproach. They differ in their religious Views as they do in politics, but let us remember we are sending men to the Legislature and not to Limbo, and we will hear nothing of a man's belief. Let it be a clean campaign. What ever thrusts are made let them come from a tree platform or afree press and for this purpose the REVIEW is open for signed communications ot reason- able length and character dealing with public men or pl: bile questions. more. With the Liberals feeling strong in their candidate and in their government, the Conservatives sure of victory with the leader who madea good tight against the redoubtable De, Lanaerkin and the Patrons with a memory of a majority of over 800, we will see some interesting sparring, a plentiful crop of predictions, some care- ful betting and no doubt some cam- paign lying. The contest for the position of repre- sentative in the Legislature is now on, and It is to be a triangular tight once and Davis also spoke, and if we can make anything out of the notes we took, next week we may enlarge Cheers for Mr. McNichol, Mr. Ray cock arurthe Queen Were given after the usual votes of thanks. Mr. Thos. Brown accupied the chair very nicely and the order was good. Mr. T.
